Shelby County Schools
?Shelby County Schools Science VisionShelby County Schools’ vision of science education is to ensure that from early childhood to the end of the 12th grade, all students have heightened curiosity and an increased wonder of science; possess sufficient knowledge of science and engineering to engage in discussions; are able to learn and apply scientific and technological information in their everyday lives; and have the skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, and communication to enter careers of their choice, while having access to connections to science, engineering, and technology.To achieve this, Shelby County Schools has employed The Tennessee Academic Standards for Science to craft meaningful curricula that is innovative and provide a myriad of learning opportunities that extend beyond mastery of basic scientific principles.IntroductionIn 2014, the Shelby County Schools Board of Education adopted a set of ambitious, yet attainable goals for school and student performance. The District is committed to these goals, as further described in our strategic plan, Destination 2025. In order to achieve these ambitious goals, we must collectively work to provide our students with high quality standards aligned instruction. The Tennessee Academic Standards for Science provide a common set of expectations for what students will know and be able to do at the end of each grade, can be located in the Tennessee Science Standards Reference. Tennessee Academic Standards for Science are rooted in the knowledge and skills that students need to succeed in post-secondary study or careers. While the academic standards establish desired learning outcomes, the curricula provides instructional planning designed to help students reach these outcomes. The curriculum maps contain components to ensure that instruction focuses students toward college and career readiness. Educators will use this guide and the standards as a roadmap for curriculum and instruction. The sequence of learning is strategically positioned so that necessary foundational skills are spiraled in order to facilitate student mastery of the standards. Our collective goal is to ensure our students graduate ready for college and career. Being College and Career Ready entails, many aspects of teaching and learning. We want our students to apply their scientific learning in the classroom and beyond. These valuable experiences include students being facilitators of their own learning through problem solving and thinking critically. The Science and Engineering Practices are valuable tools used by students to engage in understanding how scientific knowledge develops. These practices rest on important “processes and proficiencies” with longstanding importance in science education. The science maps contain components to ensure that instruction focuses students toward understanding how science and engineering can contribute to meeting many of the major challenges that confront society today. The maps are centered around five basic components: the Tennessee Academic Standards for Science, Science and Engineering Practices, Disciplinary Core Ideas, Crosscutting Concepts, and Phenomena. The Tennessee Academic Standards for Science were developed using the National Research Council’s 2012 publication, A Framework for K-12 Science Education as their foundation. The framework presents a new model for science instruction that is a stark contrast to what has come to be the norm in science classrooms. Thinking about science had become memorizing concepts and solving mathematical formulae. Practicing science had become prescribed lab situations with predetermined outcomes. The framework proposes a three-dimensional approach to science education that capitalizes on a child’s natural curiosity. The Science Framework for K-12 Science Education provides the blueprint for developing the effective science practices. The Framework expresses a vision in science education that requires students to operate at the nexus of three dimensions of learning: Science and Engineering Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Disciplinary Core Ideas. The Framework identified a small number of disciplinary core ideas that all students should learn with increasing depth and sophistication, from Kindergarten through grade twelve. Key to the vision expressed in the Framework is for students to learn these disciplinary core ideas in the context of science and engineering practices. The importance of combining Science and Engineering Practices, Crosscutting Concepts and Disciplinary Core Ideas is stated in the Framework as follows:Standards and performance expectations that are aligned to the framework must take into account that students cannot fully understand scientific and engineering ideas without engaging in the practices of inquiry and the discourses by which such ideas are developed and refined. At the same time, they cannot learn or show competence in practices except in the context of specific content. (NRC Framework, 2012, p. 218)To develop the skills and dispositions to use scientific and engineering practices needed to further their learning and to solve problems, students need to experience instruction in which they use multiple practices in developing a particular core idea and apply each practice in the context of multiple core ideas. We use the term “practices” instead of a term such as “skills” to emphasize that engaging in scientific investigation requires not only skill but also knowledge that is specific to each practice. Students in grades K-12 should engage in all eight practices over each grade band. Crosscutting concepts?have application across all domains of science. As such, they are a way of linking the different domains of science. Crosscutting concepts have value because they provide students with connections and intellectual tools that are related across the differing areas of disciplinary content and can enrich their application of practices and their understanding of core ideas. There are seven crosscutting concepts that bridge disciplinary boundaries, uniting core ideas throughout the fields of science and engineering. Their purpose is to help students deepen their understanding of the disciplinary core ideas and develop a coherent and scientifically based view of the world. The map is meant to support effective planning and instruction to rigorous standards. It is not meant to replace teacher planning, prescribe pacing or instructional practice.? In fact, our goal is not to merely “cover the curriculum,” but rather to “uncover” it by developing students’ deep understanding of the content and mastery of the standards.? Teachers who are knowledgeable about and intentionally align the learning target (standards and objectives), topic, text(s), task, and needs (and assessment) of the learners are best-positioned to make decisions about how to support student learning toward such mastery. Teachers are therefore expected--with the support of their colleagues, coaches, leaders, and other support providers--to exercise their professional judgment aligned to our shared vision of effective instruction, the Teacher Effectiveness Measure (TEM) and related best practices.? However, while the framework allows for flexibility and encourages each teacher/teacher team to make it their own, our expectations for student learning are non-negotiable.? We must ensure all of our children have access to rigor—high-quality teaching and learning to grade level specific standards, including purposeful support of literacy and language learning across the content areas.? Learning ProgressionAt the end of the elementary science experience, students can observe and measure phenomena using appropriate tools. They are able to organize objects and ideas into broad concepts first by single properties and later by multiple properties. They can create and interpret graphs and models that explain phenomena. Students can keep notebooks to record sequential observations and identify simple patterns. They are able to design and conduct investigations, analyze results, and communicate the results to others. Students will carry their curiosity, interest and enjoyment of the scientific world view, scientific inquiry, and the scientific enterprise into middle school. At the end of the middle school science experience, students can discover relationships by making observations and by the systematic gathering of data. They can identify relevant evidence and valid arguments. Their focus has shifted from the general to the specific and from the simple to the complex. They use scientific information to make wise decision related to conservation of the natural world. They recognize that there are both negative and positive implications to new technologies.As an SCS graduate, former students should be literate in science, understand key science ideas, aware that science and technology are interdependent human enterprises with strengths and limitations, familiar with the natural world and recognizes both its diversity and unity, and able to apply scientific knowledge and ways of thinking for individual and social purposes. Structure of the Standards ? Grade Level/Course Overview: An overview that describes that specific content and themes for each grade level or high school course. ? Disciplinary Core Idea: Scientific and foundational ideas that permeate all grades and connect common themes that bridge scientific disciplines.? Standard: Statements of what students can do to demonstrate knowledge of the conceptual understanding. Each performance indicator includes a specific science and engineering practice paired with the content knowledge and skills that students should demonstrate to meet the grade level or high school course standards. Purpose of Science Curriculum MapsThis map is a guide to help teachers and their support providers (e.g., coaches, leaders) on their path to effective, college and career ready (CCR) aligned instruction and our pursuit of Destination 2025.? It is a resource for organizing instruction around the Tennessee Academic Standards for Science, which define what to teach and what students need to learn at each grade level. The map is designed to reinforce the grade/course-specific standards and content (scope) and provides?suggested sequencing, pacing, time frames, and aligned resources. Our hope is that by curating and organizing a variety of standards-aligned resources, teachers will be able to spend less time wondering what to teach and searching for quality materials (though they may both select from and/or supplement those included here) and have more time to plan, teach, assess, and reflect with colleagues to continuously improve practice and best meet the needs of their students.The map is meant to support effective planning and instruction to rigorous standards.

PSCI.PS1.2 Graphically represent and discuss the results of an investigation involving pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas.ExplanationIn the K- 8 grades, students learn that matter exists as different substances that have different observable properties which serve different purposes. The fact that matter exists as atoms, particles that cannot be seen with our eyes and molecules explains its properties. At the 9 – 12 level, students are expected to further develop their understanding of atoms and explain matter in more physical terms.The state of matter of a substance is dependent on three factors: the intermolecular attractions between the atoms/molecules of the substance, the external pressure on the substance, and the temperature of the substance. Some substances such as hydrogen and helium atoms exist primarily as gasses due to very weak intermolecular attractions. This contrasts with substances such as ionic compounds which have extremely strong intermolecular attractions keeping atoms in a very organized crystal lattice pattern even at high temperatures. Pressure can be seen as an external force from surrounding matter pushing the particles closer together. Use phase change diagrams during discussions of this standard. (Students are not expected to differentiate between the types of intermolecular attractions, merely to recognize their role in substances moving between states of matter.)When exploring the behavior of gases, it is important to consider experimental design. Experiments used to show the relationships between these sets of variables should include one independent and one dependent variable. Other variables should be held constant. Pressure should serve as the dependent variable because it cannot be manipulated directly. Individual demonstrations can be performed to explore each of the different gas laws.MisconceptionsAsk students to define matter. Answers will vary, but some students may indicate that matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Ask students how the different states of matter compare. Answers will vary. Use student responses to identify misconceptions about the topic. For example, many students may think that gases of a particular substance are not composed of the same particles as the solid of that same substance.Science and Engineering Practices1.Asking QuestionsQuestions originate based on experience as well as need to clarify and test other explanations or determine explicit relationships between variables.2. Developing and Using ModelsStudents create models which are responsive and incorporate features that are not visible in the natural world but have implications on the behavior of the modeled systems and can identify limitations of their models.Cross-Cutting Concepts1.PatternsStudents recognize, classify and record patterns in quantitative data from empirical research and mathematical representations.5.

PhenomenonYou may demo some of the dry ice experiments, let students explore, or use video to engage. Pose the following question:Is it possible to have boiling ice water? If so, explain how. If not, why not?Dry ice is usually a fascinating and fun material for your students. From making “fog” to “boiling in water,” it is well-known for creating special effects. Carbon dioxide, however, also has fascinating and very useful chemical properties. At room temperature and pressure, solid carbon dioxide will warm to –78 °C and then begin to sublime to carbon dioxide gas. The carbon dioxide gas is, initially, also at –78 °C, which causes moisture in the air to condense and form the characteristic fog that dry ice is famous for.One interesting feature of carbon dioxide is that at atmospheric pressure, it only exists as a solid or gas. In order to exist as a liquid, carbon dioxide must be subjected to a pressure of at least 5.11 atmospheres. Most chemicals will exist as a solid, liquid, or gas depending on temperature and pressure. This relationship between phase, pressure, and temperature can be presented graphically in the form of a phase diagram. is dry ice?Chief Scientist Carl Nelson teaches what dry ice is and what you can do with it.

When you pull the plunger of the syringe this creates a low pressure inside the syringe (a vacuum). The marshmallow fills with air. Under reduced pressure, the air expands to fill the syringe and causes the marshmallow to increase in size.When the marshmallow is removed from the syringe, you may observe that the marshmallow is smaller in size than when you started. This is a result of air escaping from the marshmallow. The marshmallow is slightly deflated.Show picture of the railroad tank car.Scenario: The inside of this tank car was steam cleaned, and then all vents and hatches were closed.

At the 9 – 12 level, students are expected to further develop their understanding of atoms and explain matter in more physical terms.Matter of any type can be subdivided into particles that are too small to see. But even then, the matter still exists and can be detected by other means. A model showing that gases are made from matter particles that are too small to see and are moving freely around in space can explain many observations, including the inflation and shape of a balloon; the effects of air on larger particles or objects.MisconceptionsStudents may believe there is no space between the particles of solids. The size (dimension) of the particles of solids is bigger than the particles of liquids and the particles of liquids are bigger than the particles of gases. Students may also believe that particles of solids cannot move. Solids are made up of the particles completely, but liquids and gases are made up of the particles that are no completely those particles. All solids have a definite shape. The shape of solids do not change unless they go through a physical change. Gases do not have weight. Gases are light, liquids are heavier than gases and solids are the heaviest. Gases are not affected by gravity which means they do not fall down like solids and liquids.Science and Engineering Practices1.Asking QuestionsQuestions originate based on experience as well as need to clarify and test other explanations or determine explicit relationships between variables.2.

Explain and use the naming conventions for binary ionic and molecular compounds.ExplanationThe concepts addressed in the above standards appear as patterns leading to the arrangement of the periodic table or are patterns in the behavior of atom which can be explained by patterns within the periodic table. Students should engage in activities that provide opportunities to uncover these patterns. All bonds in compounds represent some form of electromagnetic (electrostatic attraction). The difference between bond types is related to the cause for the electrostatic attraction, whether or not atoms are ionized when they interact. Students use the periodic table to predict how elements may combine due to their positions. Also, students learn to name ionic and covalent compounds and how to write chemical formulas. The concepts above are important because it prepares students for understanding concepts in chemistry. Students will discuss orbital notations in chemistry and the discussion relates back to the organization of the periodic table and the arrangement of elements in the periodic table. MisconceptionsRoman Numerals The use of Roman numerals can be confusing. Copper (II) oxide is CuO, with one copper atom for each oxygen atom. The compound copper (I) oxide is written as Cu2O, with two copper atoms for each oxygen atom. Remind students that the Roman numeral represents the charge on an atom, and the Arabic subscript numbers, such as 2 and 3, show the number of atoms of each element.Science and Engineering Practices1.Asking QuestionsQuestions originate based on experience as well as need to clarify and test other explanations or determine explicit relationships between variables.2.

PhenomenonWhy did the Statue of Liberty turn green? It's green because the copper has corroded, and the simple salts of copper that have formed are blue-green. The copper reacted with the air and produced copper salts, which some people called corrosion products or tarnish. When copper is exposed to the air for long periods of time and without anyone handling it like this, that's what happens. And the color of the salts or corrosion products is green. See Figure 1 on page 552 in Glencoe Physical Science Teacher Edition.How does potassium iodide look and what can it be used for?Potassium iodide is a stable, white solid that looks like table salt. Potassium is very reactive with water, silver in color, soft, and a metal. Iodine is a dark gray solid that sublimates into a purple gas. See Figure 2 on page 553 in Glencoe Physical Science Teacher Edition. Potassium iodide (KI) is a chemical compound that can be used to protect the thyroid gland from possible radiation injury caused by radioactive iodine (radioiodine).Visual Learning – Energy Levels (McGraw Hill Connect ED) is Iodized salt an important nutrient?It provides iodine in the diet. Iodine is necessary for making thyroid hormone and is often lacking in the diets of people who live inland and don’t get much seafood (the ocean contains iodine, in the form of iodide compounds, and so seafood does to). Some areas of the world have soil that is very low in iodine, and people living in those areas used to suffer from goiters (enlargements of the thyroid gland) and cretinism (retardation of growth and mental development due to thyroid hormone deficiency). Iodized salt prevents this.

Given the reactants, use these models to predict the products of those chemical reactions.ExplanationChemical reactions are rearrangements of atoms that follow predicable patterns. There are patterns both at the macroscopic level in the behavior of some of the reaction classes, as well as patterns in the rearrangements of the atoms underlying the reaction. Students should be able to predict the products of the reactions, which also require the ability to recognize the general patterns for each type of reaction. These standards build on the idea that balancing chemical reactions provide evidence for conservation of mass and that the behavior of atoms follows predictable patterns. Students now have the opportunity to utilize this understanding as they perform and evaluate chemical reactions. Students who demonstrate understanding can use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction. Emphasis is on using mathematical ideas to communicate the proportional relationships between masses of atoms in the reactants and the products. Emphasis is on assessing students’ use of mathematical thinking and not on memorization and rote application of problem-solving techniques.MisconceptionsLaw of Conservation of Mass does not apply to atoms." Students may be able to repeat the Law of Conservation of Mass, but see no problem with atoms disappearing or appearing to balance equations."Elements can form other elements." Several students when questioned about the appearance of copper on magnesium ribbon in copper sulfate remarked that the brown solid came from the magnesium. They thought it was somehow present in the magnesium even though they agreed that magnesium was an element.Science and Engineering Practices1.Asking QuestionsQuestions originate based on experience as well as need to clarify and test other explanations or determine explicit relationships between variables.2.

Students in high school should be introduced to multiple explanations of acid and base behavior to permit classification of common substances (e.g. baking soda, ammonia, carbon dioxide) as acids or bases. Since first grade, discussions about ecosystem have involved relatively stable ecosystems, limiting disturbances to the impact of introduced species on these stable ecosystems. Under stable conditions, ecosystems remain in a condition of dynamic equilibrium. Catastrophic events can destroy entire ecosystems. Acid rain is one event that can destroy ecosystems. Acid rain describes any form of precipitation with high levels of nitric and sulfuric acids. It can also occur in the form of snow, fog, and tiny bits of dry material that settle to Earth. Students can research factors that contribute to acid rain. Including the biggest culprit is the burning of fossil fuels by coal-burning power plants, factories, and automobiles.MisconceptionsOH- Bases Most of the bases examined in this section have OH- bonded to a metal. Students might have seen the OH symbols connected to other compounds called alcohols. This does not mean that alcohols fit the definition of a base. The -OH in an alcohol is called a hydroxyl group and is not the same thing as the hydroxide ion, OH-.Acids can burn and eat material away: Students think of acids as active agents that damage skin and other materials. The idea develops in young children, who learn to think of acids as “dangerous”. Acids are not perceived as being particulate, but rather continuous matter with special properties.Neutralization means an acid breaking down Rather than considering neutralization as a reaction between an acid and an alkali, students perceive this as removing acid properties. The alkali may stop the action of an acid, or alternatively the acid may break down.A base/alkali inhibits the burning properties of an acid. Students tend to meet acids in formal education well before alkalis, so ideas about these chemicals are relatively under-developed. Although dilute alkalis are in fact more corrosive than dilute acids, students’ perceptions are that they have no corrosive properties, instead acting to or inhibit acids “eating away” other material.Science and Engineering Practices1.Asking QuestionsQuestions originate based on experience as well as need to clarify and test other explanations or determine explicit relationships between variables.2.
